I Thought You'd Never Ask Lyrics - Son Of A Preacher Man - John Rich

Well, she's been there right beside me 

Through the ups and downs and all the in betweens 

No, I couldn't live without her 

But I've never let her see that side of me 

Well, I finally bought that diamond 

I found the right timin' 

With a breakin' voice I fell down on my knees 

And she said, "Hey boy, I thought you'd never ask 

I've been lovin' on you since a long, long time ago 

And I can't believe you held out on me, lettin' all this time slip past" 

And she said, "Yes and I thought you'd never ask" 

Well we both started crying 

As we saw our future comin' into view 

We saw a home and a family and all the things 

That come with love that's true 

And as we stood there shakin' 

Talkin' about the life we'd be makin' 

She took my hand 

And looked me in the eyes 

And she said, "Hey boy, I thought you'd never ask 

I've been lovin' on you since a long, long time ago 

And I can't believe you held out on me, lettin' all this time slip past" 

And she said, "Yes and I thought you'd never ask" 

She said, "I wondered if I'd see the day 

When you'd finally give your heart away 

And we wind up in this perfect place" 

And she said, "Hey boy, I thought you'd never ask 

You know I've been lovin' on you since a long, long time ago 

And I can't believe you held out on my, lettin' all this time slip past" 

And she said, "Yes and I thought you'd never ask" 

And she said, "Yes, and I thought you'd never 

Boy, I thought you'd never ask"
